About the award-winning project "Shokz OpenDots ONE"
The "Shokz OpenDots ONE", which won the "PLATINUM AWARD" this time, was implemented through a domestic project creator (FOCAL GADGET) and finally achieved a total support amount of 317,238,701 yen.

This product is an ear-cuff type earphone that achieves the lightest weight in Shokz history. Featuring the comfort unique to open-ear designs that do not block the ears, and lightness that does not burden even when worn all day, it garnered a lot of support from domestic users, leading to this award.
"OpenDots ONE" is a new style of ear-cuff open-ear earphones proposed by Shokz. It adopts an ear-cuff design like an accessory, naturally blending in as part of your coordination like piercings or earrings. With an ultra-lightweight design of only 6.5g per ear and a unique open-ear structure, it reduces pressure on the ears, realizing a comfortable fit even for long-time wearing.

Because it is an open-ear type that does not block the ears, you can naturally hear surrounding sounds and your partner's voice while enjoying music, supporting smooth communication in various scenes such as during commuting or between household chores.
